Behavior versus Beliefs
A simple exercise today. What makes you a better person?
Your beliefs or your behavior?
Beliefs are the underpinning of much of who we think we are.
What we value, how we relate to others near us, and the world at large as well.
But does this really make us better people?
Behavior, on the other hand, is our bearing and posture in the company of
others. Or even alone, how do we act? Are we generous, respectful of nature and
personal property? Do we consume what we need without waste? Do we build a home
without impinging on the space of others? How do we behave in the world?
Thinking is one dimension of life. Acting is another. Which
makes us a better person?
